3/4 cup pearl barley
3/4 cup green split peas
3/4 cup red lentils
1 large leek, chopped and rinsed
1 yellow onion, chopped
3 yellow potatoes, diced
3 carrots, peeled and grated (I diced)
8 cups vegetable broth
1 tsp salt, or to taste
pepper, to taste
parsley for garnish - optional
Soak barley, split peas and lentils for one hour in a bowl with enough water to cover. After the hour, rinse them and put in a large soup pot, along with all the other ingredients. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer until all is tender. Mine was on the stove for about an hour.
Serve with a garnish of parsley.
We ate ours with a side of Irish Soda Bread. FYI - this soup is even better the next day.

It tasted really good. Thanks for the sample.
In Scotland that would be your starter and then the meal comes out! LOL But for me soup is a meal... I have found out that I really do have a small stomach.
I'm writing this recipe down after church. It is delicious!!
Yum, this looks so good.
